Slaven Bilic named as West Ham Manager (09.06.15)

Lukerz

Tbf, and only slightly fair, Sunderland are a shambles anyway. Only have to look at where they are in the Champ to know that.

baracks_a_hammer

If the desire is a short term appointment for someone to stabilise the ONLY option is surely Sam? He would have a better squad than when he left so needn’t be reliant on the daves spending big January

Plus Grey has retained all the relevant emoji’s, and Twist’s username is already set up.

Bazshuayi

Yes but BFS kept them up.., Moyes sent them plummeting into Champo freefall

Vorselaarhammer

Breaking....

Sullivan has used his company shipping to sneak Moyes into the ground....

Lukerz

We let Sam go to move on from that way of thinking/playing. Bringing in Moyes would be such an uninspiring appointment, even as an interim.

Hamstew

I've got to the point where I'd even take Harry for a short time.

Bazshuayi

So would I Ham. We already know the catchphrases and bare bone excuses too. Oh and hes one of us of course.

We'll have Crouch and Defore on board in no time! ;wink

SuzanneClaret

;nonono

I’d rather Dyche.

But please not Moyes.

See you all in the championship ;ok

If we do actually point Moyes i hope we go down.

Bilic will be sacked today and replaced by David Moyes, according to Lee Clayton in the Mail.

baracks_a_hammer

I’d rather even westley were given the reigns for an interim period rather than Moyes

Lukerz

Sky now reporting the news about Bilic’s future being decided within the next 48 hours and the club are in talks with David Moyes over an interim role.

Sky say David Moyes is attractive to the owners as he will demand no fee as he is unattached.

What an extraordinary thing to say.

I can't understand any fan ever saying they want to see their team relegated.

baracks_a_hammer

I think we need to hope Watford turn over Everton today and that Everton get to Moyes first

jay_in_cpt

So sad if true IMO
Moyes, yeh totally inspiring ;angry

Hamstew

Moyes is next level

grey_til_I_dye

On the bright side, the last Scottish manager we had...

Oh.

;weep

Lukerz

Can we all club together to come up with a list of semi-positives about David Moyes as our manager?

I’ll start:

It’s not Steve McClaren

I'm sure I will think of something in a minute.

1) I have consistently stated that I wanted Bielsa (everyone is a risk in their own way. Who'd heard of Silva before he went to Hull?)

2) BFS would no way come back to us just to take abuse

3) I never wanted Bilic as manager (that doesnt mean I dont like him as a person) but I swear if we appoint Moyes/Neville I will quit supporting West Ham (and have the easy life supporting Man City and Liverpool on any given week)

4) I mean it ;angry

p.s I voted for Bilic to be sacked. However, if the alternative is Moyes, I'd vote differently

All but 3)

Moyes no no no no no no

Pearces_Left_Foot

Moyes is uninspiring but we don't have a lot of options if we bring back Sam people will be u happy Harry people will be unhappy . Dyche maybe would be v organised and hard working but any club with a decent manager won't be letting them go at this stage of the season. The last thing we need is another month of no plan or direction aimlessly heading towards relegation. Bilic has had more than another time and backing he needs to go now .

Giant_Hammer

This club has consistently amazed me over the years with the way various owners have carried on but I have to say the Moyes appointment, if true, will probably surpass the lot. Was it Mark Noble who said that the club is no longer being run like a circus?
Oh and the potential irony this Season of us being relegated and the Blunts being promoted is another bridge too far. I cannot at the moment think of a single positive.
;doh ;weep

baracks_a_hammer

If the purse strings are drawn tight then, yes we will have few options. So we need to draw up a list of out of work managers who may have once managed in this league

Moyes
Pardew
Curbs
Hiddink
Grant
Sam
Craig Shakespeare
Harry

The only positive is that he won't cost anything.
That's the problem. For the owners that fact outweighs any positives from any other manager - Silva, Wagner, Dyche - all better managers but would cost money.

horshamhammer

Kevin Nolan. You know it makes sense.

jay_in_cpt

I don't like Koeman at all, but if it's out of Moyes or him , give Koeman till the end of the season to prove his worth..
Saying that I don't really want him, not sure if he'd be keen , but pls NOT Moyes ....

grey_til_I_dye

Twist

Why on earth would Dyche or Wagner want to come to us? Regardless of money.

People keep trotting out this nonsense about our owners not wanting to appoint anyone who would cost money as though it was a given fact, instead of made up old rubbish.

I suspect if Dyche made it known he would come to us, the owners would happily stump up the required amount.

But he won't.

If we are going to get shot of Slav, the only managers who might come to us are those who are out of work.

I can't think of any manager in the league, that we might think would be a good appointment, who would want to leave his club for us.

Jorderz_Moyes_will_be_Moyes

I’m not unhappy about Moyes.

baracks_a_hammer

So what’s the thought process behind this “interim manager” notion?

We get to the end of the season and hope there are different out of work manager’s around ? Because if the owners are not prepared to pursue someone already in a role now then will they change their tact in June? Who knows, they may well do, it’s a genuine question.

grey_til_I_dye

baracks

We have no idea if the 'interim' thing is anything other than hot air.

I'd think that there would be a better chance of getting a currently employed new manager in the close season than part way through.
